Chicago Residents Express Frustration over Sanctuary City Status Amid Growing Migrant Crisis
A heated city council meeting in Chicago was cut short after residents voiced their frustration with the city's sanctuary status. The meeting discussed whether a resolution should be added to next spring's ballots regarding the city's migrant sanctuary status. Many residents made it clear that they do not want Chicago to remain a sanctuary city, citing concerns over safety and an inability to care for the influx of migrants. Mayor Johnson, who initially supported the sanctuary city designation, has shifted his position and is now seeking federal funding to address the crisis.
Report Finds Link between Middle Eastern Funding and Anti-Israel Sentiment on College Campuses
A report by the Network Contagion Research Institute, in collaboration with researchers from Rutgers University and Johns Hopkins University, suggests a correlation between funding from the Middle East and anti-Israel sentiment on American college campuses. The study conducted a meta-analysis of several studies and found a strong correlation between foreign funding and measures of anti-Semitism, anti-American sentiment, and speech suppression on campus. Specifically, funding from Middle Eastern regimes showed a significant correlation with anti-Semitism incidents. The report also revealed that some American colleges and universities illegally withheld details about $13 billion in undisclosed contributions from foreign regimes, with Qatar being the top contributor of such funding.
Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene Moves to Impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas
Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a privileged resolution to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. This move comes after two of Greene's constituents were among eight people who died in a car crash involving a suspected human smuggler in Texas. While Greene has filed previous impeachment resolutions that did not reach a vote, this privileged resolution requires a vote within 48 business hours. Although the outcome remains uncertain, Greene's motion will force lawmakers to publicly address the issue and potentially go on the record with their stance.
